This patchset is used to fix a host version register bug in the T4240-R1.0-R2.0

GUTS driver to access the global utilities registers.
So, the first four patches are to add the GUTS driver.

The eSDHC of T4240-R1.0-R2.0 has incorrect vender version and spec version.

Commit 9e42f715264ff158478fa30eaed847f6e131366b ("drivers: net: cpsw: add
phy-handle parsing") saved the "phy-handle" phandle into a new cpsw_priv
field. However, phy connections are per-slave, so the phy_node field should
be in cpsw_slave_data rather than cpsw_priv.

Applied, thanks.
Linux TCP stack painfully segments all TSO/GSO packets before retransmits.
This was fine back in the days when TSO/GSO were emerging, with their
bugs, but we believe the dark age is over.
Keeping big packets in write queues, but also in stack traversal
has a lot of benefits.

The first patch fixes a bug that makes dual_emac mode break if
either slave uses the phy-handle property in the devicetree.
The second patch fixes some cosmetic problems with error messages,
and also makes the binding documentation more explicit.
The third patch cleans up th

Turns out, this breaks the build if netfilter is *disabled*, because I forgot to
add a stub in that case. Next version of patch (if there is one) will have the
following under #ifndef
Current code writes the tx/rx relaxed order without reading it first.
This can lead to unintended consequences as we are forcibly writing
other bits.
We noticed this problem while testing VF driver on sparc. Relaxed
order settings for rx queue were all messed up which was causing
